Following a run at the Union Theatre last November, Sasha Regan's all-male production of Gilbert and Sullivan’s H.M.S. Pinafore has transferred to the Hackney Empire prior to a UK Tour. Whilst I thoroughly enjoyed the show at the Union last year, something was missing. The cast included one or two weaker members and at times I didn’t have a clue what was going on. It is remarkable to see how much the production has grown in just a few months.

Sasha Regan's all-male Gilbert and Sullivan productions have become nothing short of legendary, so when it was announced that she was directing an all-male production of H.M.S Pinafore, despite trying to be open minded I arrived at the Union Theatre with very high expectations.
